The crew arrived on the scene to find a four week old infant in cardiac arrest.  Deputy Paddock took over patient care from the father, providing CPR, applies the AED, and delivers two shocks.   When the EMS crew arrived on scene they found the patient unresponsive, her heart was beating with very shallow respirations, EMS crew assisted with ventilations and prepared her for transport. The infant was taken to Tennova Medical Center and was later transferred to Monroe Carell Jr. Children’s Hospital at Vanderbilt.  Charlie Fenske is now a thriving seven month old.
